Awesome homey feel to the place, and never tried polish food before - it's actually really good, and there's more than just Polish sausage !
An EXCEPTIONAL place to get your Eastern European groove on! Favorites include mushroom pierogis , the Hunter's Stew "Bigos", stuffed cabbage rolls & a cold beet borscht that is an instant aura fluff!
Super cheap happy hour on the patio ! Tuesday to Friday 6-8, Saturday 9-midnight, Sunday 5-7! Also the appetizers are cheaper on the patio than in the restaurant .
Stroganoff , apple tart , lamb dumplings , stuffed cabbage , really everything on the menu is great! LOVE this place
Hit the patio bar and don’t miss the chicken soup with lamb dumplings
Feels like an old polish house inside, slightly creepy... food is alright by this polish girl's standards, a little steep with pricing though. Good service , waitresses speak polish and english!
I've never been inside this place... because I head down the right side around to the patio in the back. That's where the cool kids hang out :-)
You cannot ‘not’ get the pierogis .
KCRW's Evan Kleiman & Jonathan Gold have Warszawa on the short list for Favorite Pancakes in LA. Try the Latkas "super crisp and a little gooey inside."
Great food! Stuffed cabbage and many others Reminds me of home(Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)

The new York duck , is better than the turkey , with compote
The chicken soup with lamb dumplings and picked herring aren't to be missed.
My new favorite is the Beef Stronganoff~their version makes even this Russian girl proud!
Cool patio area in back. Decent food. Huge screen for projecting tv (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Dried plums wrapped in bacon is where you must start your heavenly Polish tour ~I command it! :-)
Great happy hour menu . Awesome polish food . Vinnie is the man. And the Alcohol poster when ya walk in is great.
You can eat on the couches now!
The patio in the back is the best! Make sure to ask Vinnie (manager) for his special Polish vodka drinks.
The Stuffed Cabbage is a MUST
Love the patio and freaky films they show. Love the Tatonka's!
Happy hour prices on the patio are cheap .
.....and, actually I have no idea who Vinny is, but apparently I should (and you should too!). ;-)
Mmmm...Tatanka's! Vinnie really IS the man!
Ask Vinny for an OK beer
Get a shot of buffalo grass vodka .
Charming bar that specializes in Japanese whiskeys. Special cocktails are beyond. Definitely recommended the Yoshi Island for something different. - Kevin Reevers
Solid beer list, great spot on any night. One of my favorites on the street and in the area. - Kayla Johnson
Maybe the best place for a quick meal and cold drinks in the Venice Pier. Very nice view, delicious menu and it has a history. - Burak

The fish an chip is awesome and I love the roast beef and the fry up breakfast is a must try :-) - Lloyd Morgan
The tavern delivers on many fronts. It's a community bar, no cover is always a plus, it's got a great bar menu, and did we forget to mention it's in a historic Victorian home - AskMen
